Join the Houston Tennis Club

Current annual membership dues are $30, along with court fees ranging from $3 to $5 when members play at official HTC sessions. In addition, throughout the year, the club hosts a variety of events which may require nominal fees by members.

HTC reserves courts two days a week for sessions at the Memorial Park Tennis Center. The regularly scheduled sessions are at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesdays and two sessions on Sunday mornings at 9:00 a.m. and 10:30 a.m.

We use a rating system from Open/A to D levels. (A, as in “Able to leap the center net in a single bound” to D, as in “Don’t fret about the rules, just keep the ball in play!”). HTC makes every effort to match people up with players of similar skill levels. HTC promotes the sport of tennis with activities such as: Spring & Fall Team Tennis, Club Singles & Doubles Championships and Club Ladder Challenge Matches.

Annually, HTC forms a team to compete in Texas Cup which is a tri-club championship event between HTC, Austin Tennis Club and the Oak Lawn Tennis Association (Dallas). The hosting of Texas Cup is rotated from city to city each year. It is a highly competitive and fun weekend year after year as the bragging rights to who has the best club in the state is at stake! 

HTC encourages members to form teams for competitive play in the Houston Tennis Association (HTA) and United States Tennis Association (USTA) leagues.

While tennis is our focus, HTC enjoys providing it’s members with ample social activities. One of our most popular events is “Promiscuous Doubles” where players are matched up randomly for doubles and trade partners every 20 minutes, thus giving individuals an opportunity to play with and meet other members of all levels in a fun social setting.

Other events range from bowling, to movies, to dinners, and to our annual end-of-the-year Awards Banquet.
